JavaScript Webcam API

Let your audience record and upload video on your website.

Receive video from your users

Use our Collect API to start receiving videos from your users on your own website. People can record instantly or upload an existing video. Files get sent to your YouTube, Google Drive, Dropbox, MS Azure or AWS S3 account, directly from your users’ devices without a detour through our servers for better privacy protection. All HTML5, no Flash or other unsecure technologies.

Complete privacy

Protecting our users’ privacy is critical to us. We wanted a solution that didn't involve sending their sensitive data such as video files to a third party for processing. Clipchamp's HTML5 video camera and its direct upload from the client to our cloud storage fit the bill perfectly.

Their video ingest API is on the cutting edge. We’re able to receive fully transcoded video files directly to our cloud storage without the need to transcode them on our own servers. Clipchamp is the Holy Grail of video transcoding!

Clipchamp's JavaScript webcam is trouble-free, which continues to make our students and teachers happy. We’re thankful for all the positive feedback we’ve received from our users because of this feature. Solid proof that Clipchamp was the right solution for our needs.

We're very satisfied with your API overall, it's fully integrated in the web application we're building now and it works perfectly!.... It's amazing for me as a developer to be able to "outsource" all the video recording and uploading functionality in our application to the Clipchamp API which does a great job and be able to focus on building a user experience around that.
